Setup and Installation

Follow these steps for optimal placement and installation of your solar fence lights.

1. Unboxing and Initial Charge

Upon receiving your solar lights, ensure all components listed in the "Package Contents" section are present. Before the first use, place the lights in direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours to allow the internal batteries to fully charge. This initial charge is crucial for optimal performance.

2. Choosing a Location

Select an outdoor location where the solar panel on top of the light can receive direct sunlight for the majority of the day (at least 6 hours). Avoid shaded areas, as this will reduce charging efficiency and shorten illumination time.

3. Installation Methods

The lights can be installed using screws or double-sided adhesive tape (not included for tape method). A screw hole positioning ruler is provided for accurate placement.

  1. Method 1: With Screws
    • Open the light cover to access the internal components.
    • Locate the ON/OFF switch and ensure it is in the "ON" position.
    • Close the cover securely.
    • Use the provided screw hole positioning ruler to mark the desired screw locations on your fence, deck post, or wall.
    • Drill pilot holes at the marked positions.
    • Insert the screws, leaving a small gap for the light to hang.
    • Hang the solar light onto the screws, ensuring it is stable.
  2. Method 2: With Double-Sided Tape (Not Included)
    • Ensure the light is switched "ON" and the cover is closed.
    • Clean the surface where the light will be mounted to ensure good adhesion.
    • Apply strong outdoor-grade double-sided adhesive tape to the back of the solar light.
    • Press the light firmly onto the desired surface for several seconds.

Operating Instructions

The DOESLAG Solar Fence Lights are designed for simple, automatic operation.

  1. Power On: Before installation, ensure the ON/OFF switch located inside the light casing is set to the "ON" position.
  2. Automatic Charging: During daylight hours, the integrated solar panel will absorb sunlight and convert it into electrical energy, which is stored in the internal battery.
  3. Automatic Illumination: As dusk approaches and ambient light levels decrease, the light sensor will automatically activate the LED bulb, providing illumination.
  4. Automatic Shut-off: At dawn, as ambient light levels increase, the light sensor will automatically turn off the LED bulb and resume charging.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your solar lights.

  • Clean Solar Panel: Periodically wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, or debris. A clean panel ensures maximum sunlight absorption.
  • Clear Obstructions: Ensure no trees, bushes, or other objects are shading the solar panel, especially during peak sunlight hours.
  • Battery Replacement: The included batteries are rechargeable. If the light duration significantly decreases over time, the batteries may need replacement. Refer to the specifications for battery type (3.7V).
  • Winter Care: In areas with heavy snow, clear snow from the solar panels to allow for charging. If storing the lights during winter, ensure they are fully charged and the switch is set to "OFF".
